[Python-markdown-discuss] URLs failing to match Wayback Archive URLs

[Alan H. <co...@al...>]

I noticed today that Python-Markdown doesn’t transform angle-bracket syntax links when they link to pages on the Wayback machine (probably because they have a URL within a URL). 

I consider this a bug, as there is no problem with such a hyperlink in practice.

In fact, my email client just highlighted the above line as a link; clicking it works perfectly.
